+How to use Docker to setup a nanos world server.
+
+
+:::caution Community Resource
+
+The Docker setup is maintained by the community. For more details, visit the open source GitHub repository: [nanos-world-server Docker](https://github.com/olivatooo/nanos-world-server).
+
+:::
+
+
+You can run nanos world server in a containerized environment using [Docker](https://www.docker.com/). This method works on any system that supports Docker (Linux, Windows, macOS).
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+* Docker (version 20.10 or higher)
+* Docker Compose (version 2.0 or higher)
+* At least 100MB of free disk space
+
+## Quick Start with Docker Compose
+
+#### 1. Create a `docker-compose.yml` file:
+
+```yaml
+services:
+  nanos-world-server:
+    image: olivatooo/nanos-world-server:latest
+    restart: unless-stopped
+    # Uncomment to always have the latest version
+    # pull_policy: always
+    ports:
+      - "7777:7777/udp"
+      - "7777:7777/tcp"
+    volumes:
+      - ./Packages:/app/Packages
+      - ./Assets:/app/Assets
+    # Uncomment and modify to pass parameters to the server
+    # command: ["--port", "7777", "--map", "MyMap"]
+```
+
+#### 2. Start the server:
+
+```shell
+docker-compose up -d
+```
+
+#### 3. View logs:
+
+```shell
+docker-compose logs -f
+```
+
+#### 4. Stop the server:
+
+```shell
+docker-compose down
+```
+
+## Using Docker CLI
+
+Alternatively, you can run the server directly with Docker:
+
+```shell
+docker run olivatooo/nanos-world-server
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+You can pass server parameters by modifying the `command` section in `docker-compose.yml`:
+
+```yaml
+command: ["--max-players", "32", "--announce"]
+```
+
+## Persistent Data
+
+The Docker configuration mounts a volume to `/app` inside the container. This allows you to:
+- Persist server configuration files
+- Add custom packages and assets
+- Access server logs
+- Maintain saved data between container restarts
+
+## Updating the Server
+
+To update to the latest version:
+
+```shell
+docker-compose pull
+docker-compose up -d
+```
